When I came to the recesses of the mountains, I saw that these people were all Khitans, and all men over the age of ten wore scimitars on their waists and bows and arrows on their shoulders, and even many women. Sure enough, all of them are fierce and capable, everyone is brave and strong, and they are not much more worried than the Jin army under Wanyan Zongwang, which is far from being comparable to ordinary Song soldiers.

The two got off the horse, Xiao Yingying saw that many people were injured, so she bandaged the wounds, Shangguan Yun asked: "If there is chaos today, there are Jin troops everywhere, why are you still here?"

Few people could understand Chinese, and most of them looked at Shangguan Yun in confusion.

A strong man in his twenties walked out of the crowd, his face was angular, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looked like a leader, only to hear him say in a rough voice: "It is not so easy for him to want the land cattle and sheep of our Khitan people, as the descendants of the Xiao family, even if we are not officials in the court, we must kill the Jin people to the point of crying and howling, and let them honestly roll back to the mountains of the Jurchen Department, otherwise they still think that all the Khitan men are as docile and deceitful as cattle and sheep." He looked at the two of them and asked, "I think you look like Han Chinese, what do you want to do here?"

The Xiao family has always been a Wang family in the Liao State, although the Khitan Emperor's surname is Yelu, but the Queen Mother of all dynasties is surnamed Xiao. Yelu and Xiao are nephews and uncles, each generation of Liao emperors are from the Xiao family, and the Xiao family has gradually become the first major family outside the Khitan royal family, and there are many civil and military officials in the Xiao family.

Shangguan Yun arched his hand and said politely: "In Xia Shangguan Yun, that girl is a sister, and I have a sister who was caught by a traitor, and I tracked it all the way to here, we have no other intentions, ask Brother Xiao's name." ”

The strong man also returned the salute and said, "My name is Xiao Yan." He saw that Xiao Yingying was bandaging the wounds of his clansmen, and asked, "Are you Langzhong?"

Shangguan Yun nodded and said, "We have learned some medical skills, and we can cure some simple typhoid diseases and sword wounds. ”

Xiao Yan was not polite, he tore the sleeve of his left arm with a hiss, and said loudly: "I was shot by the Jin man a few days ago, and now it has suppurated, and I can't cure it myself, and it is not easy at all to fight, can you help me take a look?" I saw that his arm was swollen like a thigh, and the wound was already shiny, and the wound was even more rotten.

Shangguan Yun told him to sit down, cut the rotten flesh on his arm with a knife, and cleaned the wound with strong wine, and then bandaged Xiao Yan with the best Jinchuang medicine.

Xiao Yan gritted his teeth in pain, but he only snorted a few times, although it was not as heroic as when Guan Yunchang scraped his bones to remove poison, but he did not lose the heroic feelings of his husband. He was very happy when he saw Shangguan Yun's excellent medical skills and saw him healing the injuries and illnesses of his own people, and laughed and said: "Brother Shangguan, you not only saved my life, but also treated the injuries of my people, and I can't repay you, so I invite you to drink wine and eat meat, do you say okay?"

Since returning to the Central Plains with his parents, Shangguan Yun has never dealt with such a simple and heroic grassland person, and he can't help but be overjoyed, and said happily: "I can't ask for it." ”

Xiao Yan was even happier when he saw that he was happy, and hurriedly beckoned everyone to take out the mare's milk wine and scoop up the mutton that had been boiled in the pot. But he was not satisfied, so he asked some men to slaughter two sheep, and they carefully removed the wool, cut it open, washed it, and roasted it on the campfire.

After Shangguan Yun and Xiao Yingying had healed all their injuries and illnesses, the mutton on the bonfire was also roasted, and the aroma of meat wafted far away, and everyone sang and danced around the bonfire, and couldn't help but toast and hand meat to the two. Although he couldn't understand what everyone was saying, Shangguan Yun was not polite, and every time he drank to the end of the glass.

Xiao Yingying was born in the Central Plains, and she is a beautiful girl, how have she ever seen such a scene since she was a child? She also smiled, put down the reserved and dignified Miss Jiao of Tiejian Villa, and drank and ate meat with everyone.

The two whole sheep have been roasted to be charred and crispy, and when someone takes the roast sheep off the bonfire, Xiao Yan stepped forward with a knife and cut off a sheep's head with a wave of his hand, he handed it to Shangguan Yun, and said in a rough voice: "Brother, please!"

The sheep's head was burnt yellow, the sheep's tongue was stretched out, and the two eyes were also protruding, looking very scary, Xiao Yingying only felt disgusted. She was very puzzled in her heart, and she didn't know why Xiao Yan gave such an unappetizing thing to Shangguan Yun to eat.

Shangguan Yun understood how important the sheep's head was in the hearts of the grassland herdsmen, and if they were not real guests, how could they be willing to treat it as a precious and delicious sheep's head and hand it to others. Shangguan Yun didn't push, when he took it, he cut off a large piece of meat with a knife and sent it to his mouth.

When the people saw that he was eating happily, they all shouted in unison, and then laughed again. Hundreds of people sang and danced and laughed until it was dark. Shangguan Yun and Xiao Yingying originally planned to leave overnight, but Xiao Yan and the others were unwilling to let them go, so they were forced to stay by everyone, so they had to stay overnight and leave tomorrow morning.

After eating and drinking, it is inevitable that he will have sweet dreams, and Shangguan Yun slept very soundly this night. In the middle of the night, in a daze, he seemed to hear a lot of people killing from not far away, and he suddenly woke up, and sure enough, he heard movement in his ears. When I walked out of the tent, I saw that there were many people holding torches on the surrounding earth hills, and they had surrounded this place, and there were no less than a thousand people in this formation.

Xiao Yingying also came out of the tent, and when she saw this formation, she exclaimed, "Brother Yun, are these Jinren?"

Shangguan Yun shook his head and said, "I don't know either." ”

The Khitan herdsmen had already woken up, Xiao Yan shouted loudly and scolded everyone to break through, he saw the two of them, and hurriedly walked over and said: "Brother Shangguan, it's all because I didn't arrange a few more people, Xiao Xiao's kid was drunk again, which made the Jin people pick up the cheap." Don't worry, the men of my Xiao family are not soft bones that can be caught with their hands, and when we fight a bloody way, you will take the opportunity to escape. I see that your horse is a divine horse that cannot be picked out by a thousand or hundred, and the golden man will not be able to catch up with you. ”

Xiao Yingying asked, "Then what should you do?"

At the moment of the strong enemy, Xiao Yan was not afraid, and said: "They sent them to the door themselves, so that we can find their traces everywhere, and just have a good time with these traitors." ”

Shangguan Yun looked at the surroundings of the mountain recess, couldn't help but worry about Xiao Yan's safety, and said: "Brother Xiao, there are no less than a thousand people around here, and the total number of people in your clan is less than three hundred.

Xiao Yan laughed vigorously and said, "Don't you know that the women of our clan will also go to battle?" With these thousand golden soldiers, we will kill them all with four or five slashes, and there have been several times like this before, which time did we not defeat them?"
